This weekend, I helped someone install FreeBSD 2.1 using the boot disk from a CDROM and some twiddling. Initially they went to WWW.FreeBSD.ORG, but couldn't easily find the install disks or what to install. There was no top level install.doc, and (checking post-facto) the "get installed" code came in 3 levels deep. This is rather buried. It makes it very difficult for someone to pull the code down for an install.
